22:05 | New document, "Hashes: Fossil Artifact Identification", which attempts to break down the HASH vs VERSION vs commit ID vs NAME vs UUID mess. It also serves to document my current understanding of all the ways "UUID" is currently misused, but because it is only documenting the current state of things, it's safe to put it on trunk. (Changes to cope with that particular slice of the mess will appaar later, on a branch.) ... (check-in: 33bec291b0 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
20:45 | In www/checkin_names.wiki, documented the date: prefix for timestamps, added fragment IDs for subsections, added a differentiating example of "fossil info" vs "/info/NAME" for special check-in names, and documented the order that Fossil resolves such names. ... (check-in: 74a7309aad user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
19:45 | A few small improvements to embeddeddoc.wiki: added a named anchor so we can refer directly to the section talking about "ckout", referred to checkin_names.wiki only once from the relevant paragraph instead of twice, and added a paragraph explaining why this feature is particularly useful. This is in support of an upcoming commit: we're going to remove some redundant commentary about "ckout" in checkin_names.wiki. ... (check-in: 51511b7205 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
17:56 | Added a top-level "tags" Makefile target for updating a Vim tags file using Exuberant Ctags (requires -R feature). It also updates a cscope file if we find cscope at configuration time. One so interested could add etags support to this as well. ... (check-in: ebb67be487 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
16:56 | The error message Fossil gives on TLS certificate check failure changed in Fossil 2.11, so updated www/ssl.wiki to show the new message. Left the old message in place, since many people will be running versions of Fossil that still use that format, and a big part of the reason why we have this error message in the document is to make it come up in web searches for the error, since we give solutions later in the same doc. ...

15:01 | Fixed a comment: it was not only referring to the now-removed /test-forumnew page, it didn't properly describe what followed. ... (check-in: 0475b4f120 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

08:47 | Renamed branch_of_rid() to branch_of_ckin_rid() to disambiguate it from the new branch_of_file_rid() function and to make it clear to callers what parameter type it expects. ... (check-in: da1adac6d1 user: wyoung tags: artifact-view-links) | |
08:44 | Fixed a typo. ... (check-in: d43afe59f3 user: wyoung tags: artifact-view-links) | |
08:20 | The new /artifact View and Tip buttons were always referring to "trunk" because we were passing a file RID to a function that expected a commit RID. Added a new branch_of_file_rid() function to parallel the branch_of_rid() function we were incorrectly calling to fix it. Also squished a memory leak. ... (check-in: c27f646f25 user: wyoung tags: artifact-view-links) | |
07:38 | Added "Tip" and "View" links to submenu of /artifact pages to get corresponding /file and /doc links to the same file on the same branch, giving different views of this same file data. ... (check-in: a9dda382bf user: wyoung tags: artifact-view-links) | |

18:33 | Added header comment to new tools/fossil-diff-log explaining what it does and how to install it. Also fixed a syntax error. ... (check-in: e4ba38f211 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
18:25 | Added tools/fossil-diff-log script, emulating "git log -p", the feature having been requested twice now on the forum. ... (check-in: 836d6b4f21 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

03:58 | Expanded on the "Certificates" section of www/ssl.wiki to fill in some details. The key improvement is making the first line of the OpenSSL error when the CA trust store isn't set up searchable. As it was, you pretty much had to know the solution already in order to seek out this documentation! ... (check-in: b3c0c07c07 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

2020-04-20

20:13 | Experimental fix for link failure under --with-openssl=tree on some platforms (found on CentOS 6) where OpenSSL needs -lpthread to link. Not on trunk because we probably need something more subtle than this to make it work broadly. ... (Closed-Leaf check-in: 8a046acb99 user: wyoung tags: openssl-needs-lpthread) | |

2020-03-19
| ||
15:11 | Add a configure time check for the existence of setenv(3) in libc for use by fossil_setenv() which has nicer semantics than its current underlying implementation on POSIX systems, putenv(3). This doesn't fix any known issue other than a technical memory leak, but I'm checking it in in case someone finds the code useful someday. ...

17:03 | Hoist the list of POSIX subsystem features for Windows up to the top of the "Windows" section in globs.md to wave readers off to the "POSIX" section of the same doc before we get into truly Windows-specific details. ... (check-in: 21929d37a3 user: wyoung tags: glob-docs) | |

18:17 | Repurposed the check for "d" cap in the Security Audit page to warn that it should be removed from use. It checks the anonymous, developer, and reader users for it only, not any one-off uses. It also doesn't check Setup or Admin, but presumably whatever we reuse "d" for in the future will be granted to them by default. ... (Closed-Leaf check-in: 8059b9cac1 user: wyoung tags: eradicate-d-cap) | |
18:03 | Added comments and documentation for the removal of d cap. ... (check-in: 7454cce841 user: wyoung tags: eradicate-d-cap) | |

17:02 | Removed the favicon byte array added in support of the /favicon.ico URL handler. It's unused since [81b3ce3a1350eaa9], when that page began serving a GIF and now gets the same data from the aLogo byte array. ... (check-in: 1b63f6894f user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
16:56 | An extension of [3941824d] to remove all mention of 'd' capability from the code, not just ifdef or comment it out. Also removes it from the docs and from the default capability set for Developer, dei -> ei. ... (check-in: 55a7643938 user: wyoung tags: eradicate-d-cap) | |

20:21 | Updated the "SHA-3 vs SHA-2 vs SHA-1" section of the fossil-v-git article to cover recent developments: Brian M. Carlson's plan for migrating Git to SHA-256, SHAmbles, and more. ... (check-in: 4fdc8db06a user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

17:23 | Replaced "countless Git users" in point about detached heads within fossil-v-git doc with a link to a Google web search that currently returns ~389000 results. So not countless at all; just very, very large. :) ... (check-in: e472ad36d6 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

19:18 | Clarified point 2.2 of fossil-v-git.wiki, adding more info about the sizes of Fossil vs Git in response to comments on this Hacker News posting: [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21974942] ... (check-in: 9dcb3de471 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
18:30 | Healed inadvertent fork of trunk ... (check-in: 636b47f9a2 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
18:28 | Added "more" column to the fossil-v-git doc: we have evidence of people reading only the summary table at the top and then reacting to their understanding of that brief one-line characaterization of the difference rather than engaging with the detailed arguments making up the bulk of the article. ... (check-in: fd9e211d39 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
18:05 | Clarified point 2.6 in fossil-v-git.wiki to address feedback from Hacker News user balfirevic here: [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21974942] ... (check-in: f6e04cc423 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

03:22 | Put 7.x series headlines one level deeper so they nest properly under their parent, the 7.0 section, in rebaseharm.md doc. ... (check-in: 5453dbff5b user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
03:05 | Moved all of the "Features found in Fossil but not in Git" up from section 3.1 into section 2.1 Featureful of the fossil-v-git doc, where such differences are otherwise covered. Removed section 3.2, giving the opposite case, since all of the Git features not found in Fossil are already covered elsewhere in the doc, sometimes more than once, as with the rebase issue. ... (check-in: d357f81b6c user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
02:40 | Updated the discussion of SHA-3 support in Fossil within the fossil-v-git.wiki doc now that Fossil 2.10 is out. Basically, it changes the tense on all SHA-1 text to past tense. ... (check-in: d887a6d74d user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
01:53 | Replaced brief footnote in fossil-v-git doc explaining why we use JavaScript (sparingly) with a reference to the new javascript.md doc, which explains this much more fully. ... (check-in: 21c7f1f8a3 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
